as we call our park police, but just as

tanned window
There are actually streets set aside
for courtship by the parlorless poor.
Upper Eighth avenue, where the little
shops are; lower Second avenue, past
the houses of the. old fogy rich, and the
bottom of Broadway. where all the great
shipping and express offices are closed
and dark-there are the great Irritation
prOmenades of the tenement boys and
girls. There are stupid folk who see
the long proc eSsions of giggling girls in
their best bows and streamerS, and i'm
agine them to be off the path of virtue,
or slipping off. But these are not the
places where such. girls are found, and
he who thinks ill 0fthese girls had bet
ter not presume upon his ignorance, or
he will find them well able to take care
of themselves. No, they have put on
their second best gowns, and the young
mechonics and pOrterS have put on their
best coats and plaStered their locks with
oil, and both sexes have sailed out to
meet and flirt and pair off and walk
home. They don't know it. but they
cannot help doing so. It's nature.

her to be cOurted while on duty. Ifher
employers did not discharge her the
other girls would torment her beyond
endurance. Meetings between the girls
and their beaLs Oh the way H0ine from
work are not to be taken into coGsidera-
ton, for the laSses go home in troops
and are mercileSS leases. so that this Is
also rare occurrence. One of the big
shopping stores, by the way, employs
detectiyes 10 see that 10 young fellows
hang about the store at closing time to
meet the counter girls. But there is
afield for matrimony that is directly
in the stores and is eX-
ceedingly' fruitful. The male
employees, buyers, heads of depart
mentS, men clerks, cashiers and even
the members of the firms get very many
wives from among the girls whom they
meet every day and grow to admire, If
their qualities are such as recommend
them. Acquaintance thus made lead
to visits at the, girls homes, 10 evening
cOmpaniOnship and to wedlock. These
same men and women in the big stores,
by the way, are among the hosts that
attend the Sunday schools.
Now come away from all these more
or less commonplace folks. Take the
Second avenue elevated railroad with
closely populated part of the city. where
tenement houses rise like canyon walls
on either side of the avenue and up
and down the cross streets as far as the
eye reaches. jIheSe walls are pierced
with multitudinOuS windows. and in
them you see the domestic life of the
tenement folk as one might have
studied the domestic habits of the
CLIFF JEWELLERS IN THE PREHISTORIC
tr- IL TIMES.
Where you should expect to see par
lOrs you see people huddled together at
work, making clothing, washing at
laundry tubs and all the rest, and often
there are beds beside the work benches,
or so many beds that the workers are
forced into the Kitchens and dining
rooms. 70 observe also that not only
are many of the women in the windows,
as though to get more room by leaning
into the street, but that the children
and idierS of the Swarmi & households
are simultaneously numerous in the
streets. There literally is no room for
them indoors. nan "
Pray, tell me. in this vast section of
New York, where half the population
lives, what provision is there for love
making? Where is the counting. and the
billing, and cooling. and all the steps
that lead 10 marrying to be carried on?
Why, out of doors, to be sure. The
parks are the parlors of these girls. The
streets are their trysting places. And
the roofs and the wharves are quite
handy in the warm weather, assure
you. In solid. swarming tenement
neighborhood in June you ought to see
how out of doors is utilized by the low
ers. Some are on the roofs enjoying
the breeze and the spangled sky, some
are seated along the string-pieces of the

doubt whether there is any Strlcter
school for lovers in America than tnat
in our middle-class life in New York.
The city is so large and it is so nearly
impossible for any but the wisest ana
most cautious to make sure of the char
acter o f even ones neighDorS that,
among the people of moderate means,
Wednesday and Sunday night caller are
obliged to see a great deal more OF the
parents of their beloved than is the rule
in other American cities. Far from be-
ing the rule, it is the exception when
they spend an evening alone
with the maidens, the calls
being made in the presence of
whatever members of the family are at
home and have assembled in the parlor.
Unlike London and Paris customs, it is
the habit here to permit young woman
to attend the theater, parties. balls and
Eevening entertainments generally, solely
in the company of her beau, and no
parents that | know of object to her
going riding with no other companion
than him. But he must do most of his
counting at her home, and must not OBJ
ject to the presence of parents or
brothers if they choose to occupy the
same room with the fair one. And
when he and she 90 out she must be at
home again by certain prescribed
hour, and must not invite him unless
his status as man with serious lnten-
tons is pretty thoroughly understood.
Tie very rich and fashionable girls en-
joy much greater freedom. and so do
the poorest Ones-but of them anon.
Undoubtedly, the strictest of our citl-
zens in ante-matrimOnial matters are
the Jews. As rule, they demand at
least that their sons and daughters shall

NOW YIN SlOlChCSpCl d Qull lcl VI d
century, knew case almost in point.
The stOrekeeper's daughter fell in love
with German gentle. He bore the
title of count, but was an honest fellow
for all that, and was a prosperous
artisan. The girl dared not bring
him to her home or tell of her
love to her father. She met the
count in the street and In neighbors'
houses, and finally eloped with him. 1t
was more than year before her father
wonld see her or permit her to enter his
house. He struck her out of his will
and considered her dead. But the
mothers tears melted his stony heart,
and her coaXing, added to that of his
more liberal friends, paved the way for
her to be taken INTO the family again.
Without doubt the strictest rules for
courtship in every respect are enforced
among the New York Jews.
One of my adventures as reporter
was my meeting young man in his
place of business on Duane street. He
answered the questions l put to him,
and. when | was about to take my leave,
laid his hand on my arm and said:

me question you. How am to get

and find wives among their old play

While was child l moved from place

woman is Chinaman.
WHAT SHALL DO FOR A WIFE?'
This bachelor told me that he knew
of other cases very like his own. He
said that far too many young so placed
strayed into the society of fOrSaken
women either to become despisers of all
female society or to link themselves in
illegtimate and unmanly unions with
these OutcastS. He used the word sun
manly" and it struck me it was good
term to apply to those who help to
scandalize humanity in that way. Since
my meeting with this queer fellow l
have had occasion to see that there are
thousands, possibly tens of thousands,
of homeless young men in town who

And the prince and the courtier and clown.
If they wish, they may take all the rest
The Earth.
